zomg teh euros

[Farbin Kaiber]

Yeah, I'd need to mold and fill the plastic trim. Not worth it.

LP# euro plate coming whenever I sell my other black lip.

Farby Karby, when are we doing the shadowline day?

Prolly in the next two weeks tops, we need to buy a few cans of etching primer, and SEM, then do three cars. I'll prolly remove my trim, don't know bout you guys....

^^^ It's a lot harder than taking a rear DB trim and putting it on a uroh bumper.

I might have a solution that will solve your license plate situation. Anyone who remebers E30Trash's car had a smooth front bumper, i cant remember how he did it, haitian voodoo perhaps. im sure someone can find a picture of it since it was one of the sexiest e30's to grace this site. it would be tits on euro bumpers. just my two cents...

I like teh zomg teh euros flava!

[e30polak]

Needs clears, LTWs and a drop...lol

Seriously it needs to be a lil lower, and get and mtech 1 trunk lip. ;)

that has to be the best looking early model i have seen in real life
I think chrome kidneys and black centers would look tits, and the rear looks flush without a spoiler

Thanks!

Chrome kidneys are in the works. Also in the works (for the exterior, at least... ):

proper shadowline
paint cleaning (it needs it, I've neglected the paint for years)
front lip restoration (either satin black or color-matched, don't know yet)
mudflaps all around
centercaps
detexure, straighten, and paint existing rear valence
repaint rockers

Dude, calm down. I just think euro plates on US cars look dumb. To me they're an attention-whore thing. I used to like them, but not really anymore. You're the one getting agitated. I don't have a US plate, either. I think they all look retarded. Makes your car look like it has buck teeth. I think a black one with white lettering could look good.

I'm not getting agitated... I don't get agitated easily. I'm just surprised that you care so much :)

Really, I agree that euro plates that say stuff are sort of a dumb gimmick. (like vanity plates) However, I cannot agree that front plates look retarded. To me, an empty space into which something clearly goes is worse.

Black plates don't look very good to me. I can't find any examples right now, but black background used to be standard on Russian license plates (in the 60's or so), and they just made the letters stand out more.

Do you fume like this when you look at actual cars... in Europe? They also have number plates on the front. The euro bumper was designed around having a light-colored thing in the center of it, and looks unfinished if there's nothing or a dark thing there.

FWIW, a US plate there also looks pretty bad.

Gotta stick with the big "LOOK AT ME" sign on the front of your car, eh?

Oh well, to each his own.
